Marcelo Bielsa will be working on transfer business currently, as he looks to take his side up another level next season.
One player who has been linked with a move to Elland Road is Miller, who has caught the eye for Birmingham, being hailed as ‘fearless’ by Lee Bowyer.
The 18-year-old midfielder has made five appearances for the Championship side and a bright future is expected for him.
The Latest: Fresh update emerges
According to Football Insider, Leeds believe a deal can be completed for Miller on July 1st, with all parties pulling in the same direction.

The Verdict: One for the future
It is vital that Leeds plans for the future, ensuring this glorious period in the club’s recent history continues, rather than fizzles out all of a sudden.
Miller is someone who would be viewed as a hugely exciting long-term prospect, in that respect, slowly growing into a first-team regular and developing under Bielsa.
Given his reputation at Birmingham – their fans were fuming when the Leeds links first popped up – signing him could be considered a major coup.
